Bette Midler releases Woody Guthrie cover video with Barbara Hershey
Bette Midler released an official video for Woody Guthrie's 1940 song "All You Fascists (Bound to Lose)," featuring actress Barbara Hershey. The video intercuts Midler and Hershey with archival footage and on-the-ground scenes from recent No Kings rallies, framing the remake as a direct rebuke to President Trump. By turning a World War II-era protest anthem into contemporary protest imagery, Midler positions Guthrie's song as a present-day rallying cry that connects past movements to current demonstrations.
NEWS: Bette Midler just released a new music video for her remake of "All You Fascists Bound to Lose"—featuring Barbara Hershey, other celebrities, and crowds from the No Kings protests in a joyful, powerful show of resistance. You have to see this.

Thank you. I saw the name Bette Midler and had to watch. 😄. I needed that music video. It helped. I feel better now.
Just want to mention, incredible backup & vocals! This group did Woody proud!!!
Bravo!! 🥰 All you fascist are bound to lose for sure. There are more of us than you, & we are gathering, resisting, & fighting back.
This was out for the last No Kings protest, but didn't get as much notice as Bruce's song at the time. Love you, Bette 💕 Love you too Bruce 💕
Absolutely LOVED IT! I'm gonna watch it again right now!
Fabulous 🎶 The Beaches scene re-creation at the end 💙
no kings but these queens
Hey America The Divine Ms M has called out. Are you going to stand behind her come the mid terms?
I had taken a photo of that guy in the beginning of the video. Downtown Los Angeles
Love it!! Ms Bette nails it!!
Played her song over my megaphone at the last No Kings Rally. Powerful.
Just in case Americans need to be reminded of what a fascist is and how our government came lose its democracy and be taken over by Trump and Fascism here is a list of fascist actions. See how many you recognize being attempted by the Trump administration 🙄!
I saw the Divine Miss M at the Greek theater in L.A. in early 80's, and she is still as fabulous as she was 40+ years ago! 💙
I think Woody Guthrie would approve. Check out his song about old man Trump (dotard’s daddy)!
She lost me when I saw that she was friends w/ notorious TERF, Martina Navrativola. I'll always question someone's overall character & integrity by those they choose to associate with. I'm deeply saddened becuz I was a huge fan of the Divine Ms. M for a very long time. No flowers for her.
Meidas. You are late!!! She made this for the last No King protest... do try to keep up! 😝🤪
Every complicit administrative enabler .. including Musk and the Trump family .. need to face justice, at the blue state level, to prevent commutations in the future.
This is just too good!!! Thank you beautiful ladies 💙💙
No one does it quite like Bette!
Ok, but when I see Bette and Barbara together I just cry and cry. Beaches was a cornerstone movie in my adolescent life.
Nobody does it quite like #BetteMidler. She is brilliant!
Why is the pop guard to the camera?
Resistance Revival Chorus version: youtu.be/Jp9PQiJnXCI?...
This is going to be permanently stuck in my head. ❤️
No Kings - only Goddesses, The Divine Bette
👍👊✅️ He will react, the orange lunatic... #Trumph @locuta.bsky.social
Woodie Guthrie remake. They did a terrific job!
Made me tear up a little. It can be so exhausting.
Huh. Never expected to love a song sung by Bette Midler. Or Woodie Guthrie. I can appreciate him. Just not my thing. Although his son's The Motorcycle Song lives rent free in my head for some reason.
I love music with powerful messages like this! I respect celebrities, content creators, artists, etc. who use their platform to speak out against evil and help support the resistance movement
Keep the inspiring news coming! I haven’t felt this hopeful in a long time that our voices are finally beginning to be heard in the darkness. It’s because we are so powerful when we stand up for goodness together.
I've always loved Bette Midler. I love her even more now.
This is fantastic. I love it.
Bette Midler just covered Woody Guthrie’s 1940 “All You Fascists (Bound to Lose)” with Barbara Hershey, giving it an anti-Trump twist. Imagine needing a WWII-era protest song for current events—and here we are.
Her voice is still strong. I'm thrilled to have her on our side
Holy… whatever… this is so quintessential Bette. If you’ve never known her, let this introduce you!
Perfect timing, today is Liberation Day in Italy, celebrating the end of WWII and end of fascist control of the country with the liberation by the Allied Forces, you know the US and who were once our allies in Europe. It’s a National Holiday here.
Though as a student of history I do have to point out that WWII is not very long ago on a historic time scale, roughly a century.
Love it! ❤️ Bette has always been a Rebel.
The Queen #BetteMidler singing truth 🙌 repost and spread the word 💙🌊🔄 #resist #ResistanceBlue The great #WoodyGuthrie wrote this song many years ago. She changed some of the words to fit our times.
